Mid-Florida Home Management is a vacation home management and a short-term rental company that currently maintains over 130 homes all close to Disney. We have high standards and are looking for a part-time Maintenance Technician to help us locate and correct maintenance problems before and after guest stays. Our overall goal is to meet or exceed guest expectations by providing a maintenance-free, visually/functionally appealing, safe, and enjoyable stay in our homes.

We employ various sub-contractors to provide services to our pools, lawns, and pest control as well as a handyman service to complete a lot of our major maintenance and repair work.

A Maintenance Technician must have good general maintenance skills and experience. A Maintenance Technician is required to work well under minimal supervision and in a fast-past environment that can perform various duties aimed at maintaining and enhancing our vacation rental homes.
